Smowmageddon

Now that the pesky power is back on...


My sister in Minnesota would laugh but sometimes it even snows in Athens. Mom would kill me if she knew about this pic. She's wearing her Walmart hat/bonnet (one of those little plastic checkout bags)--after all, she had had her hair done the day before. This was yesterday:






I snapped it because I figured it would be the best we got this year having missed out on the Christmas snow that LJ got. I was wrong.



Some pics from today. First from the backyard:





And then the front:


The perfunctory Courthouse Pic:




And some Backyard Ice Art:




A backyard before picture might be in order:

Gorgeous pics.

That's a handsome courthouse.

How long were you without power?

Just a couple of hours without power though the lady across the street still claims to be withouht.

Stuff is falling off the trees like crazy now. Tomorrow it will look like nothing ever happened. We didn't lose much in the way of trees like LJ's neighborhood...a dogwood limb snapped and we lost a "junk tree."

Small Texas counties love their courthouses...ours is only average. Some are truly magnificent.
